AlyxWRONGzandia

A baby in the paper today - Alyxzandria.

I really don't think z following x works. It's superfluous. I feel like I have to say ALYX (pause) ZANDRIA in order that the z isn't swallowed up. Ditto for double x, such as Jaxxon, of which there is one in my extended family. I always want to say JAX - SON.

Poor baby Lyxy, I don't know why the parents only massacred the first half of the name. Why not go all the way, like Alyxzandreeyah? So yooneek.

Random name generator

I came across this random name generator:
http://www.kleimo.com/random/name.cfm
It's based on the US Census data. You can select Male or Female and set an obscurity level.
